Dracaena angolensis (Sansevieria cylindrica) 'Twister'

Dracaena angolensis 'Twister' has thick cylindrical leaves arranged into a twisted central shape. The grey-green spears keep the curved texture of the African spear plant, while the woven arrangement gives the pot a compact centre.

The visible twist comes from the arrangement of mature leaves. New basal shoots can appear later from the rhizome, often growing beside the original spiral and gradually adding extra foliage around the base.

Twisted spears in a tight centre

  • Grey-green cylindrical leaves held in a spiral arrangement.
  • Water-storing foliage with subtle banding.
  • Rhizomatous base that may produce new offsets over time.
  • Dense leaf arrangement that needs careful watering around the leaf bases.

New shoots after the original twist

Dracaena angolensis is native to southern tropical Africa and grows from rhizomes in seasonally dry conditions. The twisted leaf arrangement leaves the plant’s biology unchanged: beneath the visible spiral, the rhizome still follows the same dry-adapted growth pattern.

Fresh shoots may emerge outside the original spiral. Letting them grow naturally keeps the plant healthier than trying to bend mature leaves, which can split or scar when forced.

Care around dense leaf bases

  • Light: In bright indirect light, new growth stays steadier and the outer leaf surfaces are less exposed to sudden scorch.
  • Watering: Check the substrate, not the calendar. Water only after a deep dry-down and avoid wet pockets at the base.
  • Substrate: Use a gritty mix that drains quickly and dries evenly around the rhizome.
  • Handling: Support the twisted leaves during repotting so the base is not pulled loose.
  • Temperature: Keep warm year-round, with extra caution after watering in winter.
  • Maintenance: Remove damaged leaves cleanly at the base; mature cylindrical leaves keep their hardened shape.

Problems linked to the tight arrangement

  • Moisture between leaves: Tip away standing water after watering and improve air movement around the pot.
  • Cracked spears: Pressure, bending or knocks can split mature leaves; place the plant where it will not be brushed often.
  • Soft base: Unpot and inspect the rhizome if the lower tissue darkens or collapses.
  • Straight offsets: New shoots are normal growth and can be left attached or separated later with roots.

Safety for pets and handling

Dracaena angolensis 'Twister' contains saponins and may cause digestive upset if chewed by cats or dogs. Keep it out of reach of pets and small children, and wash hands after cutting or handling broken tissue.

Botanical name and leaf-shape clue

Dracaena comes from Greek drakaina, meaning female dragon. The species epithet angolensis means “of Angola,” while the older Sansevieria cylindrica name points to the plant’s cylindrical foliage. The spiral arrangement gives this form its twisted central shape.

Dracaena angolensis 'Twister' has grey-green cylindrical leaves arranged in a compact spiral with dense basal growth.

Great quality shirt, Recommend!
Size: X-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather, Pocket Description: No Pocket
This shirt is suprisingly comfortable, thick and fits very well. Not too short & not too long and is good quality fabric that streches with you. It's more than just a generic, thin long sleeve T-shirt. U can wear w/jeans or chinos, it's that nice. I paid 3x the price for designer brands w/logos that are not as nice. Price is right, too!

JUST "SHORT" OF PERFECT
Size: Medium, Color: Black, Pocket Description: Pocket
I have purchased several of these long sleeves with pockets in various colors. PROS: First, they are surprisingly high quality for an Amazon Essentials product. The material is thicker than I was expecting. I was looking for a thinner material to wear inside a shirt but I was pleasantly surprised. These are sturdy. I also liked the fact at the sleeve ends don't have elastic. They are straight open and loose allowing for free movement and it doesn't feel constricting. CONS: However, they are all a little short in length. And some colors are shorter than others indicating inconsistency and quality control issues. The burgundy I got was the shortest. Wearing them is a little frustrating as they are always rolling up and drafty especially in cold weather. If they were just an inch or so longer, I would have given 5 stars.

Well made, well fitting shirt.
Size: Large, Color: Burgundy, Pocket Description: No Pocket
I love buying products that pleasantly surprise. This is a well made shirt made with quality fabric. I also like that it fit me perfectly, it's wrinkly resistant and great value for the money. I've brought this awhile ago and it's held up great in the wash. It's one of those causal wear shirts you can wear just about anywhere. Oh, and the part that pleasantly surprised me the most is the fit. It fit so well, people ask if I've been going to the gym or am working out (I haven't). Who knew all i needed was a nice fitting shirt?

Great quality- thick and soft t-shirt
Size: X-Large, Color: White, Pocket Description: Pocket
These are the softest, thickest long sleeved t-shirts ever. Highly recommend...cannot believe the price and that they are Amazon-basics...quality is that of a good popular brand name at three times the price. Bought one last week and washed it up and it's so nice that I bought several more. It is true to size- looks a bit on the big size until you wash it and then it's very true to size. Hubby is 6'1" (205lb) and wears an xl.

Yeah, they shrink, a lot.
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Grey Heather, Pocket Description: Pocket
I knew they would shrink but I needed to know if so on permanent press cycle. Well they shrink a lot. I bought two and they were very comfortable and soft. I'm not returning since Amazon made it clear they will shrink. I'm the dummy.
